Eight Days Until Easter

Who: Bunnymund and YOU
What: Googie training
When: Today
Where: In the gardens
Rating: Its the goddamn Easter Bunny, it's as child friendly as you can possibly get.

With the vast majority of his eggs painted, Bunnymund has taken a break to cover another important part of Easter preparation. He's stood on a rock, a small group of about twenty googies waiting expectantly, their newly painted shells glimmering in the winter sunlight.

"Okay, troops!" Bunny calls to them. "We've got eight days left, and a lot of work left to do. So let me see how good you're getting at this."

He pulls out a stopwatch, waving it in front of the little coloured eggs.

"I want the time shaved. Remember, we've not just got anklebiters here, we've got adults and no dream sand to keep them knocked out while we work. We've got to be fast, okay? Ready. Set. GO!"

And with that, the eggs scramble (ba dum bump) racing off to various places in the garden, hiding themselves away. All except one, which toddles itself into a snowdrift, its sad little spindly legs waving around in some distress. Bunny sighs, plucking the little egg up.

"I know, Squigs. The snow isn't helping any. We're just going to have to adapt if it's not gone before Easter."

[[OOC: As always only people who believe in the Easter Bunny can see him. The googies are completely visible to everyone, though]]

Having just arrived a few days ago, Ed finds the gardens and the little egg-shaped things running around. Having never heard of the Easter Bunny and not going to believe in him any time soon, they're the only things he sees.

"What the hell?"

He approaches one and stoops down to get a better look before reaching out to grab it.

"Hey!" Ed chases after it and watches it dive under a bush. He tries to sneak up on it and creeps towards it's hiding place. He slowly crouches down and peers under the vegetation. It wasn't too hard to spot since it was so brightly colored against the dull colors of the foliage and the pale snow.

"Gotcha." He reaches out to catch it again...
milkisgross: (According to this...)

Ed takes the egg and gives it a thorough look. He could have sworm it had legs. Hell, it ran away from him. Now it just looked like a normal egg that someone colored with food dye. Maybe it wasn't the same one...

Pocketing the egg, he bent down to look under the bush again, but found no trace of the walking egg.

"What the hell was that?" He wasn't talking to anyone in particular. He was, of course, the only one out there, right?

Ed felt something move in his pocket, and lo and behold, EGGS EVERYWHERE.

"What kind of joke is this?!" There wasn't a string on that egg. Ed had checked! Besides, they all had legs!

"Fine. Try to get outta this." He clapped his hands together and pressed them to the ground, transmuting the ground under one of the eggs and trapping it in a little dome of earth. He's going to get to the bottom of this.

"HEY!" Ed dove at it. Was he making a fool of himself? Of course. Did he care? Nope, not right now. His conscious (a.k.a. Alphonse) wasn't there to tell him how childish he was being.

He just wanted to know what made these things work, damnit!

Instead of catching said walking egg, Ed face-planted. He managed to pick his head up to see the egg lifted up by some invisible force, and he scrambled up to check it out.

"Now what?" He reached out to see if he could snatch it from...well...thin air.

Ed jumped up to get it now. Damn you, egg. HE WILL NOT BE BESTED BY AN UNBORN CHICKEN! His pride as a human being and man of science was on the line now.

Having been taught by Izumi Curtis, Ed was in good shape, and he sprung up in the air to grab that damned egg.

Ed had pretty quick reflexes, but maybe it was the timing of the unknown and invisible troll, as the egg fell past Ed's flailing arms and hit him square on the head. The egg wasn't particularly large or dense, but it did manage to hurt Ed's pride a bit.

"Damn egg." He picked it up and looked at closely. Once again, there were no signs of the little feet he saw it running with, and there was no sign that it would be an intelligent thing. It just laid there in his hand, brightly colored and rather nice to look at, but nothing beyond that.

Ed kept the egg in his firm grip this time before looking around for anything that may have somehow manipulated it, but there really wasn't anyone else there. Not that he could see anyway. Perhaps this was one of the "tricks" the castle had conjured up. If such was the case, then perhaps he could study the egg and find some clues behind how the castle worked. Before glancing around once more, he left the gardens, but not without feeling that someone or something was laughing at him for his antics.
